Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on moving companies to come up with our data-driven rankings. It's not possible for a company to pay for preferential treatment in our rankings. We look at the following key factors in determining who should top our list:
Different types of movers are better for different types of moves. The first step in selecting a moving company is determining whether a local or national mover is best suited to your needs. You will also have to figure out if you want to hire a full-service or self-service mover. If you loathe packing boxes, a full-service company that provides packing services may be right for you. If you don't mind doing your own packing, you may hire a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not packing assistance. Next, you can look to see which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Illinois. You can also look for reviews online and look at the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Bradley's best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our experts. After you have narrowed your list down to just a few companies, you can begin getting estimates from them. We strongly suggest speaking to at least one or two of the companies on our list above. When you do reach out, be sure that you explain all the services that you're going to need. You should also verify that the estimate you receive is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, it may be subject to change.

Bradley's temperatures tend to be moderate. Your move will likely be affected more by the day of the week and time of day than the season.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
To ensure you get your desired pickup and delivery times, you should book moving services as early in advance as the company allows, often four to six weeks before your moving day.
